The Democrats are pussies who have enough trouble finding a singular message, let alone communicating it coherently.

I have all the respect in the world for her life, that's why I was pissed off about all that "2nd amendment remedy" bullshit we heard in the mid-terms season. It's unnecessary and provocative.

Yeah, because he's gay and his spouse left him. If it was that guy, he probably would have shot himself in the head after he was done shooting other people and not try to run away. Besides, he's partially paralyzed. I'm not saying it was not him, I'm just saying the likelihood is very low.

This is personal to me.

She was a friend and colleague of mine. She was on her way to a meeting me and others. I had breakfast with Ron Barber Monday morning, who was also reportedly shot. His wife was my wife's doula when JJ was born. I haven't heard if he's alive or dead.

Democrats use her death as a gun control rally cry in 5... 4.... 3.....

CNN has a local stream on the website. If anyone is interested.

They have had the best coverage I've found online.

I find the timing of such argument in poor taste. Politics is irrelevent right now, what is, is her life.

Do they think she has a shot?

**jAZ** · 01-08-2011, 01:26 PM

That link will have the hospital PC in 5 minutes.

13 people shot. 5-6 killed. Dr's talking to sister and mom now.

Jesus Christ. What was the kid shooting?

I just heard that a person in the crowd shot at the gunmen. If so I hope he didn't shoot an innocent bystander.

Bewbies · 01-08-2011, 01:34 PM

This is horrible. I hope she makes it through and is able to return to her job.
